Hey, friends! We are so happy you’re here!!
Welcome to the place where you will spend less, and laugh more! It just makes “cents.” This is a lifestyle blog for women who are overwhelmed, super busy with life, wish their house was a little cleaner, love their kids more than anything, but can’t wait for bed time at the end of the day. Around here, the goal is to share deals and sales on everything you need. Plus, we share loads of fun family life tips and ideas. On this blog, we share:
- deals on all the things we own and love OR would love to own!
- tips for photographing your kids- because time flies, and it’s the only way I know to freeze time!
- recipes that your whole family will love, and are usually super easy!
- DIY projects that don’t take forever to finish because chances are if they do, I’ll never finish them
- simple and fun things to do with kids
- tips for traveling with kids because time away is so important in this busy world
- and whole lot of mom-life.
A little more about us..
Saved by the Belle is a site, inspired by the women around us that remind us we are all in this together and it is our job to lift them up, not size them up.
We have been, or are: working moms, entrepreneurs, stay-at-homes mom, aunts, or grandmas- sometimes more than one at a time! We are here to bring you home and fashion deals, family life hacks and ideas, fast and easy recipes, travel tips and even the occasional craft or DIY.
We forget half of what we are supposed to do on any given day, we can’t finish one conversation before moving on to the next. We may (or may not) forget to feed our kids lunch until 2pm some days, and we are almost always behind on laundry. Many of us, have kids in competitive sports so we spend a lot of time and money (hence, the need to save!) on basketball courts, soccer and baseball fields, in hockey rinks, etc. But, most of time, we wouldn’t trade these days for anything, and we know we are going to miss them one day. That doesn’t change the fact that we exhausted at the end of the day, and like to binge netflix, scroll our phones, read a book, or search for online deals. Some of us might even count the minutes until bed time.
We are loud. We are quiet. We go to the gym everyday, and not at all. We are the ones that look for a second opinion every time we pick an outfit, and we are the ones you come to for that opinion. We are married and single and moms of multiples and only children. Our kids are grown and out of high school, and just starting kindergarten. We love to cook, and we eat takeout 5 nights a week. Simply put, Saved by the Belle is here for you all, because just like you all, our team doesn’t fit into a neat little box.
Our posts have been published in local magazines and featured on parenting and photography blogs such as: huffington post, red tricycle, mamapedia, lemonade and lenses, and the bloom forum. Whether you’re looking to work on a more personal level with us, or just browse through this blog, you can learn so much here, and hopefully, have some fun and find someone who you can relate to!!
Here are a couple of photography tips and tricks for you to start with:
and few DIYs I love
some travel tips
a little bit of mom- life,
and a couple of recipes!
I hope you will stick around for a while and check out all there is to offer here. Let’s get to know each other, and have some fun together all while being busy, overwhelmed women who are looking to spend less, and laugh more because it just makes “cents.”
xoxo,
